It should be deprecated because it adds nothing over validateCompareTo and does not do the job of locating/computing/comparing two equal input component values as well as validateCompareTo does.
Or to look at it another way, defining a validateEquals jsp or facelet tag handler that points to the validateCompareTo code instead of the validateEquals code will provide better functionality. validateCompareTo will become the plain jsf component, and validateEquals will continue to be a tomahawk component (until such time support for it is totally dropped).
